Favourite plinking targets

[rg627]

Ok, just for a laugh...

Part of my shooting is purely for fun. Informal paper punching and DIY plinking targets are great. Here's some of my favourite, what are yours? I need some more information

Very childish, but great fun:

Eggs
Mentos
Various boiled sweets form B&M or Poundland
Toothpaste caps
Beer bottle caps

Buy plastic plant pot labels or use old ones. Approx 12mm across x maybe 12 cm long. Stick them in a plastic plant pot full of sand and shoot to slowly reduce their height.
Or old pencils.
Cheers, Phil

I often use

Obviously printed paper targets but for laughs :-

The tiny tins that the cat food comes in. matchsticks to try and strike them and a bit of paper with some spots of jam for big fly game hunting.

all at about 20m.

Nothing made from plas or glass.

Plinking is great fun, picking up litter not so much.

Biodegradable targets are my choice.garden peas make a nice splat, pasta pieces, and sugar cubes for longer ranges.

water balloons and polo mints. with water balloons someone calls a colour and you splat it. polo mints you shoot the hole and not the mint.
one we all loved was balloons with flour in. bit messy, but fun watching the clouds of dust.
when i had an allotment i never used snail and slug pellets, i used lead pellets.

For me, nothing beats empty drinks cans.
